REmedy
So, for me it is a quick scan and 'delete all messages.' Some useful videos sent by an ECian are saved for later viewing.
Also any meeting or address is forwarded as an email before a purge which happens some 4 times a day.

Unfortunately, in case of better half, this 2% useful stuff is buried within all these MBs of garbage

Same here,from the past few months I had been copying all the videos and pictures to my PC but now I just connect the phone to the PC,go to the phone's whatsapp->media->videos-> "CTRL A" "Delete".
was tired of the warning every few days storage space running out please delete some data for phone to continue.
Imp messages/video/audio I forward to my email at the same time.
Next I will delete videos/pictures/audios as soon as I view them.

But thats not the solution,I want videos to autodownload from my family groups there are some people who really send informative vdos and there are some groups where SL types of vdos are received.
So blocking all is not a solution but vdo is surely a problem I get more then 1.5 GB in a week my phone has storage of 16 GB so you can imagine what happens to my phone.

SL types of vdos Ye kaun sa type ka videos hai If you mean saneless type of videos then you are very wrong. I rarely watch videos on whatsapp... not even from friends and family

I was thinking everyone has an iPhone. Yes, but if you want selected few to download automatically and few to not, the rule setting is kind of tough. Even Facebook introduced selective blocking only recently, so Whatsapp has a while to go.

If it is auto download, I end up spending too much time deleting media. It is easier for me to save few useful pics or videos which are less than 5%.
